If you’re desperate
Nothing about it was worth the price we paid. Paint splatters all over one chair and the recliner looked like a circa 80s pick up from Goodwill. Didn’t get instructions on how to enter the property (side street) and had to call after hours to get help. It’s old, musty and overpriced. No coffee either. We could’ve stayed on the pier, with our dog, for about the same price—and much better amenities. We do NOT recommend.

Great location
Ended up getting another property with same host by choice due to circumstances. The host was wonderful and had great communication with the process of changing locations and the flat was perfect for us. Well decorated, the bed was comfortable and rooms had a phone charger and noise machine which was appreciated.

Great Experience, As Advertised, Responsive Host
Professional, caring and communicative host, nice house as advertised and depicted in photos, in great walkable location in downtown. Very quiet and safe neighborhood walkable to nightlife, restaurants and charming shops. Perfect for us (retired couple with medium sized dog). We've traveled extensively, have previously rented homes for various lengths of stays. In this instance we stayed 3 weeks so we really experienced the place and give this property an "A plus."

Extremly clean and great location
The cottage was in a great central location. Well stocked with towels, and other supplies. It was cold the week we’re staying and being an old home the heating was not efficient. The queen bed had a memory form mattress that was worn in the middle so sleeping was a struggle. It is set up for pour over coffee but the kettle was not. They really should have a coffee maker available.

Fantastic location to explore historic Astoria Oregon
The property’s location is a major plus for this clean cute cottage. My husband, myself and our adult daughter enjoyed exploring downtown and the surrounding areas. We were able to walk around the historic area and had a fantastic meal at Breakside Brewing (their Butternut squash soup and salads were amazing ) not your usual pub food. The cottage had everything we needed and was in a quiet off street location with parking. The beds were very comfortable and the owner was very responsive. Thank you for hosting us.

Great location for walking to most things in Astoria. Anything we couldn’t walk to, the trolley could take us! Great spot, would absolutely stay there again. Can’t beat the views of the river and had multiple visits from deer in the yard!

Decent Lodgings at a Reasonable Price
Cottage was clean and comfortable. Location great for its nearness to restaurants, brewery, historic homes, etc. It's just a 2-block walk to good food. Cottage set in the midst of other buildings, so there is really no view and no yard to speak of. Would give a 3.5 rating, if that were an option, but gave it a 3 based on a few less than optimum items (e.g. leaking showerhead, shortage of cooking equipment, broken window blinds that didn't provide complete privacy). Despite those issues, we would definitely stay here again.

Overall we were pleased with the property, location, quite surroundings. The television setup was a little difficult to understand, perhaps some written guidelines. Our only concern was with the main bedroom door, when my daughter closed it she could not reopen it from inside the bedroom, knob needs replacing.

Great Downtown Location
We had a hiccup with the door code and a service tech had to visit for the Wi-Fi, but Jake, the next door host, was quick to assist and everything else went well. The location is perfect for walking to restaurants and bars, and close enough to the riverfront to enjoy the scenery. And a fun group of cats came to visit us in the yard!

We enjoyed our stay
We enjoyed our stay very much and it was fun to be so close to Downtown Astoria. The only thing that might have been nice was a slightly better stocked kitchen such as more serving bowls, measuring cups, Zip Lock bags, etc. Limited some of what we could make in the cottage.

Perfect downtown cottage
The location can't be beat! The house is tiny, tucked into a little nook within walking distance of downtown. It's dated, but you can already tell that from the pics. Did the trick for a quick weekend getaway.

This property was perfect for me and my family. Very clean with lots of character. The only downside was the lack of a view. I would stay again if given the opportunity.

The cottage was a perfect size for 4. We enjoyed it a lot. We didn't spend a ton of time at the cottage but the beds (even the roll away cot) were very comfortable. It was clean, light & bright, and the location is really great. Hoping to be back soon :)

The property was perfect. We had our own "private" yard for our dog Lilly to play fetch in. Loved that the cottage was off the street and quiet. We had plenty of fun in a few short days. Would have stayed longer if we could.

House was comfortable, and well located to coffee houses, restaurants, and walking. The kitchen was missing details… that made a difference for us. Coffee pot , a wine glass. And strainer for pasta. These details did make a difference when our plans were to have multiple meals in for our 3 nights stay!
